Bennington 218 SF keeps an estimated 67% of its value after 5 years — #2589 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Bennington 218 SF retains an estimated 67% of its value after five years, ranking #2589 of 5915 boats we track. That is 5 points above the 62% five-year average for Pontoon in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Bennington 218 SF sheds about 11% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $35,660 it falls to around $23,999 by year five — a five-year loss near $11,661, about $6.39 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Bennington 218 SF bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
